In 1988, the Golden State Warriors signed John Starks as an undrafted Free Agent out of Oklahoma State University. A year later, he was cut from the team and was playing in the Continental Basketball Association (CBA). In 1990, Stark tried out for the New York Knicks and made the team. He became the Knicks starting shooting guard during the 1992-1993 season and was selected to the NBA All-Defensive Second Team. In 1994, Starks was selected to his first NBA All-Star Game and led the Knicks all the way to the NBA Finals. The following year, he set a new NBA record with 217 three pointers in a single season. Starks spent eight seasons in New York. His determination and his raw emotion made Starks one of the most loved players in Knicks history. The defining moment of his carer came during Game 2 of the 1993 Eastern Conference Finals when he dunked over Michael Jordan and Horace Grant of the Chicago Bulls.
